johanna Mackretb, for Is years n CHARGE
upon the membership of the First Presbyteri-
an Church, of Wheeling, w, Va, died under
peculiar circumstances. She resided in the
North end of the Crawford property on Six
teonth street, known as Z" Poverty Row. and
for the past three weeks kept the doors locked
and windows barred, refusing aclmittance to
oil corners, and combining herself closely to
her room
Only once during this period did she accent
food and medicine, and in this instance they
were almost forced upon her by Mrs. James
JcpSon, sympathetic neighbor, who broke
down one of the window barbados in order
to accomplish her charitable act Whether
Johanna plrtook OF the food and medicine
furnished on this occasion is not known, but
certain it is that she strengthened the barri-
cade sufficiently to prevent further relief from
this source
The neighbors finally became alarmed at
the condition OF affairs and telephoned TO the
Chief of Police, who had tho door broken
down. Tho cid woman was found living
dead on the floor of the foul shanty she
callci her home. In the room were three
heavy chests, in one of which was found an
old leather bag, which contained several
thousand dollars in gold and silver coins.
The physician who examined the body
stated that the woman had died of starvation

No Chance for Tariff Reform

All serious efforts to secure reduct ton
OF the tariff at this session may be con.
sidered at an end. There may be some
thing more said about the matter, but
there will be no legislation.
Mr.. Randall has been pretending that
he wanted to have the tarit% reformed, but
when he was forced to state exactly what
he proposed it appeared that he simply
aimed to cut of the internal revenue
taxes.
He cannot now say that he represents
the Democratic party on the tariff ques-
ton. He was asked TO go into a caucus
OF the Democratic party for the purpose
Of deciding upon policy relative to the
tariff that would command the support
of the whole party, and he refused. He
knew very well that his yiews are not
those of the great majority of the Demo-
Gratis on the tariff, and hence he would
not submit to party action.
Mr.. Randall has the satisfaction. il it
be salts action, Of knowing that he
prevented any action on the tariff by the
House during the present Congress. II
the Democratic party has failed to keep
it's pledges, made IN it's national plat.
form, relative TO the tariff, Mr.. Randall
alone is TO blame. He may be pretty
fair Democrat in many respects, but it is
certain that he stands squarely with the
Republicans on the tariff.
